In a reaction 5.3 g of sodium carbonate


Asked by admin @ in Science viewed by 299 People


Question 1 In a reaction, 5.3 g of sodium carbonate reacted with 6 g of ethanoic acid. The products were 2.2 g of carbon dioxide, 0.9 g water and 8.2 g of sodium ethanoate.

Show that these observations are in agreement with the law of conservation of mass. Sodium carbonate + ethanoic acid → sodium ethanoate + carbon dioxide + water

Heya !

Here is your answer ============================================================================

>> Mass of sodium carbonate = 5.3 g (given)

Mass of ethanoic acid = 6 g (given)

Mass of sodium ethanoate = 8.2 g (given)

Mass of Carbon dioxide = 2.2 g (given)

Mass of water = 0.9 g (given)

Now, total mass before the reaction = (5.3 + 6) g
= 11 . 3 g

And, total mass after the reaction = (8.2 + 2.2 + 0.9 ) g

= 11.3 g

total mass before the reaction = total mass after the reaction.

Hence, the given observations are in agreement with the law of conservation of mass.

Hope it helps !!! : )
